Hi everyone! some of you might remember me and my little antique cushion. After a 9 week wait it's finally on my finger.It's a Leon Solitaire with double claws.The stone is from Adam at Old World Diamonds. I made an adjustment on the band tube-yness i wanted it to be a bit flatter on the sides than the usual Leon.

The most important part of having this ring(after 3+ years of blissful marriage) is that my hubby loves it and he gets a big smile on his face every time he looks at it : ). Of course i love it too and I better since i am certain i will still be wearing this ring till im like 70! (im 27). It also feels good to have a symbol of our love just in time as we are trying for baby !

So for those who don't remember my posts- this is a 1.30 carat old mine cushion cut in the 1900"S. 6.88x6.92 L SI1. I've never tried rounds on but i think it faces up like a 1.10 round or so.

below are some pictures-such a joy i can't even tell you : ).

Beautiful ring and diamond! Congrats.
 
I''m back with more pictures, thanks for the patience. SOOO my ring was at Leon''s for 9 weeks, he had a 3 week vacation in the middle, longest weeks of my life.

One thing i realized in working with Leon is that i don'' think he realizes or cares that you are just a person who doesn''t know how different things look- for example.. a 1.6 band or a 1.8 band? "as low as possible" or a bit higher? dainty or sturdier? u don''t know what the visual difference will really be and he doesn''t have any pieces to show his techniques and different looks. He just asks you what you want in exact terms like u really know. I mention this because my ring is way tiny in real life and i didn''t think it would be so small. The craftsmanship is fantastic don''t get me wrong and the prongs are pure amazing-ness. i guess i just feel like my ring is a miniature or a "real ring" lol. We love it though and are both excited to finally have a little disco ball. The colors popping of this thing are amazing! I never cared much for white diamonds (i wanted a pink) so the colors on this OMC r the reason we chose it : ).
